The Railyards is a unique urban infill project providing the opportunity to redefine downtown Sacramento and serve as an example of urban development. The project will integrate all the elements that are attractive to a modern urban lifestyle, including proximity to transit, work, recreation and entertainment.

Located on the north side of Downtown and south of the River District, and once serving as the western terminus of the 1860s Transcontinental Railroad, the 244-acre historic Union Pacific site is the largest urban infill project in the country and has been the focus of significant public and private investment to transform the site into a dynamic, mixed-use urban environment that includes a state-of-the-art mass transit hub that will serve residents, workers and visitors. The Railyards will include entertainment, retail, housing, office, parks, hotels, health care facilities and museums. The existing guiding plan for the area envisions a site comprised of dense urban development, ultimately doubling the size of downtown Sacramento’s central business district and serving as the focal point for the Sacramento region.

The site represents an ideal and unique opportunity for major employers and tenants to establish an iconic presence in downtown Sacramento and regional transportation connectivity that will be a model for future urban development. Any future tenants will benefit from exposure to over 1.1 million annual visitors to the Amtrak Sacramento Valley Station (which is projected to increase to over 15 million by 2030 with 80 high speed trains per day) and Interstate 5 which generates 194,000 vehicle trips per day.
